If you want to do that in your own home that's fine. But seriously if you can't use chopsticks, you shouldn't be eating Chinese food in public.

seriously. if you can't figure out that its awesome to call them "Cookies fortune" just to get weird looks from the chinks working there then you might as well stay home and stir fry your own noodles

Chopsticks are superior utensils. Plebs argue that knife and fork is better to use but that;s just because they can't use chopsticks properly. Easier =/= better

I just find it awkward not to use them for asian foods since they're all cut up into chopstick sized pieces and usually served with rice or with pancakes or seaweed sheets that you need chopsticks to eat properly.
Seriously you couldn't use a fork in any feasable way to eat a lot of asian food. Even sushi is retarded to eat with a fork. Plus it takes like a total of 2 minutes to figure out chopsticks.

Naww, you've probably just never had authentic asian food.
I mean like take-out bullshit sweet and soup pork shit, yeah whatever. But like how the fuck do you do hotpot or eat anything that you wrap any seperate ingredients together with a fork? Fork don't do dat. Forks fuck up everything that can't be stabbed and a lot of asian food can't be stabbed.

I can use chopsticks to eat just fine, but people say that I hold them the wrong way. I position one between my middle and index finger and the other between index and thumb, then use the middle and index to maneuver the top one while my thumb holds the other in place. Right or wrong, works just fine for me, I can pick up everything from rice to ice cubes with ease.

When I do use chopsticks I use them like scissors to pick things up. I feel that it's a lot more comfortable and it has a stronger grip than the normal way but I get called out on using chopsticks retardedly by my family so I just use forks instead.

Most North American Chinese food is bastardized Cantonese crap that has been modified to suit Western tastes over so many decades that it barely qualifies as "Chinese" anymore.

Also
>mfw I see some yuppie or hipster carefully eating his bastardized fake chinese food with chopsticks, trying to appear cool when he wouldn't know real Chinese food if it bit him in the ass.

Having lived in China for 2 years, I can use chopsticks better than anyone I know. That being said a knife and fork is a superiour eating instrument for everything except maybe sushi. Deal with it.
